A grey morning and yellow daffodils, a slick terra cotta pot nestled in damp soil beneath the budding tree, birdsongs, cawing, echoing through windows. A thick white mug with orange lining, the words, “TEA with honey,” coffee inside it, warmth on my tongue, my fingers, cinnamon and bittersweetness. A chill on my bare skin, gooesbumps beneath fire engine red spandex, the rising of my spine, the pop of a vertebra. A small square of paper: ”movement ∞ emotion.” Small squares of paper everywhere. Contraction, release, spiraling. Breath, sex & dance. What would love do? Everything touches everything, there is a wholeness, this wholeness is in motion. Even the ether trembles; all parts of the web quivering. In waves, in ripples, in harmony, in space. A quaking mess of sensitivity. A bunch of delicate flowers arranged in a small milk jar respond to the bouncing weight of my writing hand. The budding tree bobbing its limbs responding “yes,” to the wind. And here I am, responding to each rhythmic stimulus part of the chorus in concert with the spiraling universe.
Hi, I’m Faye, welcome! Here, we get weird and wonderful and sometimes a little naughty on the path to personal empowerment. And we do it through the language of movement. We move from prescriptive to Expressive. From obedient to Deviant. From copied to Embodied.
The best way to support me in bringing more musings, movement, and embodiment resources to you is through a paid subscription. With a paid membership, you’ll have access to all of my poetry and essays, PLUS the full archive of 2x weekly movement practices, and seasonal workshops to support you in embodying your purpose and passion.
I’d be honored to move with you.
WOW, Faye! I love it!
Beautiful acoustics? Check.
Evocative imagery? Check.
A sense of interconnectedness,
references to the ineffable
mystery of the universe,
a zooming out from fine detail
to the intense entirety of existence?
Double, triple, quadruple check.
You knocked it out of the park in every respect.
"Even the Ether Trembles" — And rightly so!
